User mode driver or kernel module?

I just thought of something, a sleep time before the modem_run statement 
might be necessary on your system if my previous suggestion doesn't work.

Hi,

Whenever I modprobe usb-uhci and plug-in my SpeedTouch 330 (Rev 4.0), I get 
the following eror message:

You need a pppoa aware pppd.  The speedbundle contains one.

I'm using Fedora Core 1, but I'll throw in my 2 cents.  The first cent 
is that Fedora Core 2 final is out, so you need to get it.

Next, it looks like you didn't install everything from speedbundle. 
Then again, neither did I, but you still need most of it.  Are you sure 
that everything compiled and installed?  Did you make sure to get the 
necessary firmware (It's not included with speedbundle!)?

You need to move your pppd executables out of the way and install the 
pppd found in speedbundle.  This will place the necessary pppoatm.so 
plugin. But read the rest of this first.

run ./configure from the root of the speedbundle directory.
It will tell you what values you need to fill in the ppp_scripts and if 
you need the firmware file (you do have the firmware file, right?) 
There is a bug in the ppp_scripts, you need to edit speedtch and replace 
the 0.00 with your VPI and VCI numbers for your service.

I think that you need the kernel-source package installed, but I'm not 
certain.

Then try to make.  If you get an error on the make, do a make clean, 
re-./configure.  You will most likely fail on the linux-atm or ppp.  If 
that's the case, you don't really need linux-atm (someone correct me if 
I'm wrong; if I'm right, i would suggest leaving it out anyways, I think 
this unnecessarily writes over stuff in your existing kernel), so you 
can make and make install on each of the directories individually, 
leaving out linux-atm.  If you look at the top-level Makefile, you'll 
see how it does this (you'll want to copy its lines).  If the make fails 
on ppp, check the output, it is most likely complaining about the 
kernel.  In that case, you need to use a standard Linux kernel for the 
build rather than the Fedora Linux kernel (don't forget to move your 
original pppd executeables out of the way before installing the new 
pppd).  If you don't want to mess with the standard Linux kernel, this 
website , once updated 
for Fedora Core 2, will have rpms for a kernel that is reasonable close 
enough the standard Linux kernel to work (there will be two versions of 
the kernel on this site, a Fedora-like kernel and a std-Linux-like kernel).

If you still get this error:
> May 23 08:07:47 localhost kernel: usbfs: process 1608 (modem_run)
> did not claim interface 0 before use
then I suggest editing /etc/hotplug/usb/speedtch and increase the sleep 
time.

I rebuilt the source RPM from this site, rather than using the 
speedbundle's firmware loader (they are essentially the same, though): 


rpmbuild --rebuild some.src.rpm

The resulting rpm ends up in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS//
the "redhat" might be "fedora" or something else now that they are on 
Fedora Core 2.  Then I installed the RPM.  If you can still get this to 
work with speedbundle and without the RPM, great, but I couldn't for 
some reason.  If you do install the firmware loaders without the RPM, 
great, but I couldn't get it done.  However, if you do install this RPM, 
be sure to erase the firmware loaders installed by speedbundle.

Peace,
William

You're right, it seems the brctl tool cannot compile with 2.6
kernel headers. You'd better warn upstream authors so they can
fix this.

Following linus advices on this topic, upstream authors should
copy what they need from kernel headers in their own private
headers as including kernel headers is bad(tm). API/ABI do not
change so a copy is prefered.

Hi!
I am now trying to compile br2684ctl, on a machine with kernel 2.6.6. I get
the following:
# cc -o br2684ctl brctl-010226.c -latm
brctl-010226.c:8:17: atm.h: No such file or directory
In file included from /usr/include/linux/atmdev.h:11,

brctl-010226.c: In function `assign_vcc':

brctl-010226.c:91: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
brctl-010226.c:91: error: for each function it appears in.)

Any ideas? It would seem that brctl won't compile on a kernel 2.6.x, is that
right? The parse error is fixable by adding "#include ", but the
T2A_PVC error I can't fix (yet).

Sorry, forgot to mention that this solution worked in combination with
the standard kernel that came with FC2 (no reconfiguration whatsoever).

Duncan,

I tried something else (see
http://www.4p8.com/eric.brasseur/fc2_speedtouch_usb.html), and that did
work. I have browsed the net with FC2 ;-) 
I don't know if this gives you an extra clue as to why that does and the
kernel driver does not work?!

This solution uses however the user space driver, and I still would like
to get the kernel space driver operational. So my struggle remains...

Hi Duncan,

after applying the patches and running part of speedbundle-1.0, it still
does not work :-(

I have attached the details of my modifications and results:

Steps taken to get the Speedtouch 330 to work:

- apply the patches you mentioned to the Fedora Core 2 kernel
  - cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-1.358
  - gedit include/linux/usbdevice_fs.h&
  - gedit drivers/usb/core/inode.c&
  - gedit drivers/usb/core/devio.c&

- reconfigure kernel:
  - cp configs/kernel-2.6.5-i686.config .config
  - make oldconfig
  - make gconfig
- Device drivers->Networking Support->Networking options
  ->Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) : build as module
  - Then also select RFC1483/2684 Bridged Protocols: build as module
and switch off "Per VC IP filter kludge"
- Device Drivers->Networking Support->Network Device Support->PPP
  Support->PPP over ATM: build as module
- Device Drivers->USB Support->Alcatel Speedtouch USB Support: 
  build as module
- save all modifications
  - make
  - make modules_install install
  - add new kernel to grub.conf

- run (part) of speedbundle-1.0
  (see also http://www.4p8.com/eric.brasseur/speedbundle_fedora.html):
  - I don't have a (ethernet) network interface in my computer (no
default route/gateway)
  - Unpack speedbundle
  - cd speedbundle-1.0
  - Do not exchange sonet.h by another one
  - Put firmware at right place
  - copy ppp_scripts/speedtch-pppoatm to ppp_scripts/speedtch and edit
username and vpi.vci
  - edit chap-secrets and pap-secrets to include my isp-log-in
information
  - edit Makefile and configure script, to comment out kernel_module,
linux-atm and ppp
  - I did not remove the ppp package
  - make
  - make install

- reboot to see if everything works correctly
  - during boot I see the leds flash and in the end both leds are green
  - then I look into /var/log/messages:
